Look at the idiot a while back who took an ax to someones head for stealing a beer. I could go on about stories that happen that are bizare as this that happened in other countries.
"maybe in america" was a sarcastic comment...

How can you blame the parents, or to say that they let the child play with knives? I mean, we all forget things, and maybe the parents forgot to put a knive away. True, you should be more carefull when you leave things out that children are playing by. But it's not everyday you see a child pick up a knife and stab someone. Sure, the child knew what she was doing is wrong, but do you think she know the consequences of her actions?
as a parent you should think about everything, hell, you're not a parent for nothing... it's not a matter of the kid knowing the consequences, it's a matter of the parents telling the kid to not fucking play with knives.

Do you think that every mother sits down with her child, gets a knive and shows the child the knive and explains what could happen if you tried to harm someone with it? Maybe they do, but I highly doubt they know what it means or can comprehend the extent of the damage it can do.
i'm going to ignore the way you completely proved your first argument wrong...
i'm not saying that they should explain every single part, but IMO a kid should know that things cut and does damage. broken glass, guns, and yes, KNIVES. it's not hard. then fucking do it.
